Sometimes the people going through IVF go quiet.
Not because they don’t care.
Not because they’ve forgotten you.
They’re carrying a battle most people cannot see between hope and heartbreak, appointments and waiting, courage and fear.
If a friend seems distant, give them grace.
Give them space.
And remind them you’re there when they’re ready.
Some battles are fought silently. Support doesn’t always mean asking questions. Sometimes, it means simply staying.

Nobody talks about the men.
The men who sit through appointments.
The men who wait for reports.
The men who quietly carry disappointment after disappointment while pretending they’re okay.
Infertility is often spoken about as a woman’s struggle.
But infertility grief affects men too.
In fact, male factor infertility is involved in nearly half of all infertility cases, yet men are rarely included in the conversation.
For many men, the pain is made heavier by silence. They are expected to stay strong, stay positive, and keep moving forward even when their hearts are breaking too.
This Men’s Mental Health Month, let’s make space for those conversations.
Ask the men in your life how they’re really doing.
And if you’re a man navigating infertility right now, please know this:
We see you.
We hear you.
And at About Time, we’re with you too. ❤️
Drop a ❤️ if you believe infertility conversations should include men.

Nobody sends flowers for a failed IVF cycle.
There is no condolence visit.
No sympathy card.
No one really knows what to say.
But the grief is real.
The grief of another negative result.
The grief of plans that did not work out.
The grief of getting your hopes up, only to start all over again.
And yet, so many women carry this quietly.
If this is your story, please know this:
Your pain is valid.
Your tears are valid.
And your hope is valid too.
At About Time, our vision is simple.
To create a space where infertility, IVF, surrogacy, loss, and motherhood can be talked about openly and honestly.
A space where no one feels alone in their journey to parenthood.
Because some of the hardest battles are the ones nobody can see.
❤️ If this resonates with you, share it with someone who needs to hear this today.

Things nobody prepares you for when you’re struggling to conceive.
Googling “implantation symptoms” at 2am even though you promised yourself you wouldn’t.
The way a pregnancy announcement from someone who “wasn’t even trying” can knock the wind out of you.
Rearranging your whole personality around a two-week window every month.
Smiling through baby showers like your insides aren’t caving in.
The specific loneliness of a grief that has no name, no funeral, no flowers.
Explaining to your mother-in-law — again — that it’s “not stress” and no, a holiday won’t fix it.
The way IVF becomes a full-time job that you never applied for and cannot quit.
Loving your partner through something that tests both of you in ways you never expected.
Quietly wondering if it’s your fault, even when every doctor says it isn’t.
And through all of it still showing up. Still hoping. Still trying.
That kind of strength doesn’t have a name either. But it should.
In India alone, 27.5 million couples are in the middle of this journey right now. Most of them in silence. Most of them told to “just relax.”
You deserve more than that. You deserve to be seen.

Some couples lose years because nobody thought to test the man.
Male infertility contributes to nearly 40 to 50% of infertility cases, yet it is still one of the most ignored conversations in fertility journeys. One of the biggest reasons? “But he already has kids.” What many people do not realise is that s***m count and s***m quality can change over time because of age, stress, lifestyle, smoking, health conditions, medications, and even environmental factors. Having children before does not guarantee fertility now.
This scene from the movie A Copenhagen Love Story captures that reality painfully well. The film shows how fertility struggles affect both partners emotionally, mentally, and physically, including the difficult conversations around s***m count and testing that so many couples avoid for far too long. Infertility is not just a women’s issue.
The men need to be checked too.
Infertility doesn’t hit all at once.
It comes in phases you don’t even realise you’re moving through.
At first, it’s denial.
You start listing the “pros” of not having a child.
More freedom. More time. A different kind of life.
You convince yourself you’ll be okay. That this could work too.
But slowly it settles in.
What you might be missing.
What you had always imagined.
And still, you hold on
to timelines, to plans, to the version of life you thought was certain.
Then comes the part no one really talks about.
When hope doesn’t feel as strong anymore, but it hasn’t left either.
When you’re not in denial but you’re not at peace.
And eventually something shifts.
Not closure. Not acceptance in the way people think.
Just a quieter understanding that this is your reality.
An acceptance you never asked for.
But one you learn to carry anyway.
If you’re somewhere in between all of this
trying to make sense of it, trying to stay strong, trying to just get through
you’re not alone.
If this feels like your story, drop a 💗 in the comments.
For years, Gabrielle Union has spoken about infertility in a way that feels real and uncomfortable in the most honest way. She has talked about multiple miscarriages, IVF, surrogacy, and the part no one prepares you for the feeling of being defective, of being less than, of questioning your own body.
And that is what hits the hardest. Because so many women carry this quietly.
The thought that their body failed them. That they are not enough. That they don’t measure up to what a woman is “supposed” to be.
She has also shared how that feeling doesn’t just go away. It stays. It shows up in moments you don’t expect, even when life moves forward.
Which is why this matters. Because infertility is not just medical. It changes how you see yourself.
If this feels familiar, you are not alone.

40 was never supposed to look like this.
Not the years of trying. Not the loss. Not this version of motherhood.
I got my babies in 2022 and they are everything.
But this journey doesn’t end there.
There are still timelines in my head.
A first baby who would have been 8. Another maybe 6.
And alongside that… two little humans who remind me life still found a way.
Grief, gratitude, and gratefulness they all exist together.
You can love what you have deeply… and still mourn what you lost.
If this feels uncomfortable, it’s because we don’t talk about it enough.
If this is your story too, you’re not alone.
Maybe it’s About Time we did.
